Job candidates jump through the hoops that companies and recruiters set up for them. Some have decided that they may only get one shot at gaining all of the information possible from a candidate and placed lots and lots of hoops at the application portion of the process. They go online to apply for the job, and in some cases, they stay involved in that application process for hours - uploading a…

In full disclosure, I’m a huge geek. In 99 out of 100 opportunities on any given night, I’ll watch anything that is on the NatGeo or History Channels before I watch any of that mindless drivel of reality TV. (the Real World still gets a lifetime free pass). And so I had the opportunity to get all freaky with my inner geek and watch the …

Earlier this month we got into the issues surrounding tech worker recruitment. In “Tech Workers: The Ball is in Their Court”, we discovered the disconnect between the leverage that tech workers now have…

A couple of weeks ago, RecruitingBlogs partnered up with LinkedIn to find out what candidates can do to woo recruiters this Valentine’s Day. You answered, and LinkedIn listened, and we’re kind of in love with the post that ran on LinkedIn’s corporate…

Isn’t that crazy when you consider all the time and effort companies invest in training? The WSJ claims some studies show that a measly 10% of those taught skills are retained. As the majority of recruiters turn toward the model of hiring for attitude…

A couple days ago, I received an application via Linkedin for a recruiting position we have available at our firm. The email began like most do: “I’m interested because…My resume is attached….Let me know when you’re free…” Pretty boilerplate-type stuff. I put the candidate’s information into a folder of people I’d be reaching out to later that day.
Ten…

Talent analytics has really taken recruiting and HR practices by storm. What many company leaders thought they knew about best hiring practices is being totally obliterated by the proven effectiveness of talent analytics.
Just last year you couldn’t click on a blog post or article without reading the words “Big Data”. Speaking of which, I…

Recruiters will use any kind of information to find candidates. I once literally got contact information off of a bathroom wall once and, yes, I made a placement.
We won't discuss the industry.
Recruiters seek out the people we place, and we find them anywhere they are. It is what we do - especially good recruiters - we leverage information in order to reach…

Alright folks, I've been watching the Winter Olympics and rather enjoy this time of year for the vital lessons that the Olympics can teach us - specifically about recruiting/staffing, I'll get to that.
I remember watching Apolo Anton Ono - who won multiple Gold Medals in his sport, and Shaun White, whom has suffered a medical injury only to be back on the world stage. These athletes and others across the world are…

Perhaps no issue is more pertinent - or more pressing - to the staffing industry than the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, often referred to as 'Obamacare.' The ACA, of course, mandates health care coverage for all Americans, including the estimated 2.9 million workers per…

Any person who works in sales, recruitment or executive search knows we get our fair share of "no's". No matter how much industry intelligence and experience you put out there we know that not everyone will use it. So when people come direct to us for our expert advice, we feel it's well deserved.
Me and my colleague Mark Neilan…

A CareerBuilder survey revealed that 44% of workers who didn’t hear back from an employer when they applied for a job said that they have a worse opinion of that employer. This particular stat should drive home…

Recently I highlighted a new breed of recruiter who will thrive as technology and shifting customer attitudes disrupt the recruiting world like never before. I called these guys ‘drinkers’, although I later realised what I really meant was DRINKAE’s

Let me begin by stating that in no way am I espousing one religious view over another. Further those of you, who have followed my blog since its inception in 2007, know that I rarely touch on the ethics end of our profession. Having said that one of my local churches once again posted the Sunday sermon topic, which hit a nerve. The billboard read “Nothing can be legally…

I’ve previously talked a little about the talent shortage, and how essential training for these gaps in skill can be for companies to move forward in this competitive recruiting atmosphere. Just how tough times are…

They say "what goes around comes around" and I suppose this is a universal truth. This blog post has been on my mind for sometime, with much to think on and put forth.
The reality of every interaction is this, we are blessed by what we put in, and what we get back. Nothing more was readily apparent in this past week than this…

Have you heard of this term –re-recruiting? It’s becoming quite popular lately for several reasons. For retention experts, re-recruiting means re-engaging the workforce, to end up with a renewed passion and loyalty in the employee-employer relationship. What we’re talking about though is recruiting former quality employees for the benefit of the…
